Two homicide victims were discovered inside a house near Boston after a woman ran out of the home, authorities said

Two homicide victims were discovered inside a home after a woman ran out of the home, authorities said.

The investigation began Saturday night after a woman ran out of the Farm Avenue house and flagged down a passing driver, authorities said. She told the driver about a murder inside the home, and the driver took her to the nearest State Police barracks.

When troopers responded to the house, they found the two murder victims, a man and woman, inside.

Both of the victims were adults, according to the Essex District Attorney's Office. Additional information about the identities of the victims is being withheld until the families are notified.

Essex District Attorney Jonathan Blodgett was at the crime scene Sunday morning and said there was a great deal of investigative work to be done inside the home.

So far, investigators have not said if they are looking for a suspect in the homicides.
